About Merritt's Bakery – Broken Arrow
The Broken Arrow shop is one of three stores run by the Merritt family, who bought a tiny Tulsa cake shop called The Cake Box in September 1979. Cinnamon rolls, brownies and cookies came soon after, and in 1980 the family took over a donut shop and began frying donuts, which is how the business became Merritt's Bakery. This location sits on Kenosha Street right at the edge of Broken Arrow and the Union area of south Tulsa.
It opens early, at 6 a.m. Tuesday through Saturday, so it works as a breakfast stop before a day out. The bakery cases hold cakes, donuts, pastries and small treats, and the menu also lists breakfast items, breads, grill items and shareables. The shop has seating if you want to eat in.
For a birthday, picnic or farm visit, you can order regular bakery items on their website and pick them up in the store, or call to talk through a custom cake. Wedding cakes need at least 10 days' notice, while pre-made cakes are usually on hand for last-minute plans. The family's staff can also deliver around Tulsa with advance notice.
Honey Creek Farm, a lavender farm near Mounds that offers private tours by appointment, is about 45 minutes southwest by car. Pick up pastries here in the morning and book a farm tour for later in the day.
